Cooking and racing around the world

Entrees

For the Australian Grand Prix this year we made Grilled Shrimp and Corn Rolls with Smashed Avocado spread. They were delicious! Served with a bright little salad and a few bottles of Cooper’s Beer, it was a lovely start to the new season. I couldn’t resist find a recipe for grilled shrimp, just so I could say we were having shrimp on the barbie!

We went all out for a Brazilian feast. All the recipes come from ‘The Food and Cooking fo Brazil’ by Fernando Farah. A gift from our tenant and Brazilian friend Luis before he moved back home last year.

Testing this year, as in the past, will be in Barcelona at the Circuit de Catalunya. This gives me a perfect opportunity to use my new tome The Cuisines of Spain by Teresa Barrenechea. Plenty of dishes inspired by Catalonian cuisine perfect for a little pre-season tastiness!
